“…The values in the study were lower than 2.85 g/min reported by Bonsu et al [8] based on a non-pressurized technique (compressor box) from kernel shells briquettes but higher than 0.4-0.5 g/min from three feedstocks of charcoal, sawdust, and sugarcane bagasse reported by Abdulkareem et al [1] who used hydraulic compression machine. The 0.44-0.53 g/min obtained from coconut shell blended with charcoal dust briquettes Kongprasert et al [22] were also lower.…”

Energy availability at domestic level is a challenge across the world and especially in Africa. Firewood is the major source of energy for cooking for households in Kenya and there is need for a friendly sustainable environmental fuel. Carbonized biomass materials (briquettes) are considered a substitute. This study thus evaluated effect of selected briquetting techniques on briquettes' performance properties. Milled charcoal dusts mixed in a ratio of 1:1:1 (Rice husk, maize cob, and sugarcane bagasse) with molasses binder in the ratio of 6:1 was hence ready for densification and agglomeration. The Water Boiling Test was used in determination of the briquette's performance characteristics for various parameters. High (screw press); and low (drum agglomerator and hand making) pressure briquetting techniques were distinctly different in ignition time (minutes), time to boil (minutes) burning rate (g/min), specific fuel consumption (g/ml) and power output (kW) values as (4, 3, 3; 14, 12, 11: 0.8, 1.1, 1.3; 0.11, 0.13, 0.15; and 1.8, 1.4, 0.75). Diversified briquetting techniques, number and type of feedstocks are thus factors that influence performance characteristics of briquettes in converting the agricultural and or other wastes for useful energy application. This knowledge should enable users to make choices on techniques for optimum efficiency towards realization of Sustainable Development Goal Number #7 on affordable and clean energy.

“…biomassa yang dapat terbakar dalam bahan bakar padat setelah pengusiran bahan volatil. Kualitas briket arang yang baik yang memiliki nilai karbon tetap tinggi (Kongprasert et al, 2019). Kadar karbon terikat yang didapatkan berdasarkan uji analisa menunjukkan bahwa kadar karbon terikat menurun dengan ukuran partikel arang besar.…”

The amount of plastic waste increases with the increase in plastic use, especially in the food industry. Plastic waste is waste that is very difficult to decompose and takes a long time to spoil. Plastic bottle caps are a type of polypropylene (PP) plastic which is recommended to be used only once. The research objective was to determine the effect of particle size on the briquette characteristics of plastic bottles based on the proximate analysis. The proximate analysis carried out was moisture content, ash content, volatile matter, fixed carbon, and calorific value. The research design used was a burning temperature of 450 °C, a burning time of 60 minutes, and particle sizes of 40, 60, and 100 mesh. The results showed that the particle size of 40 mesh had the best characteristics, namely water content of 0.5±0,05%, ash content of 2±0,25%, volatile matter content of 15±0,51%, bound carbon content of 82.5±0,32%, and a heating value of 9,982.779±240,017 cal/gram. Based on the results of the proximate analysis, it can be concluded that a particle size of 40 mesh can improve the quality of briquettes compared to 100 mesh.

“…The calorific value is impacted by ash contents and closely related to fixed carbon. The charcoal briquette with high calorific value is considered high-quality products Kongprasert et al, (2019). Cotton briquettes give the highest energy values compared to corn and rice biomass charcoal briquettes.…”

The aim of the present study is to produce high-quality charcoal briquettes from biomass residues. Experiments were conducted under conditions of three different biomass residues (rice straw, cotton stems and corn stalks), two binder materials (starch and carton paper) under two different concentrations (5 and 7 wt %) and four operating pressures (0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 MPa). The produced charcoal briquettes were evaluated from physical, chemical, thermal and mechanical properties. The charcoal briquettes quality was evaluated and compared with original form of raw biomass residues.Results clarified that high-quality charcoal briquettes could be obtained from cotton residues by operating the press machine under pressure of 1.5 MPa at starch binder material with a concentration of 7 wt%. The previous conditions achieve appropriate charcoal briquette of 400 kg/m 3 bulk density, 85.23 % fixed carbon, 6.10 % volatile matter, 4.05 % ash content, 32.21 MJ/kg calorific value, 83.63 % thermal efficiency and 213.79 kg/cm 2 compressive strength.
